Talk about biting off more than they can chew... Almost makes me laugh, if it wasn't so serious.
IF this is all true, the only way they can make all this happen is to partially scale back what they are closing. Either the 777 stays, or 12-14 of the remaining closures don't happen.
I can’t see doing that without a rebid. I know I didn’t put any of the closing categories on my MD. Why would I? I can’t be the only one.
Pilots in the closing categories probably (for the most part) only have MDs in. If their category remains open, they could miss out on AE and VD opportunities.
There will be riots if they try to half award this bid and leave categories open that were slated to close. It totally affects how people submitted their bids. If the rumors are true, they’d have to rebid IMO.
The rumors could be false and we get the results tomorrow. Who knows? There’s no communication.
